Rain Dogs is the eighth studio album by American singer-songwriter Tom Waits. A loose concept album about "the urban dispossessed" of New York City, Rain Dogs is generally considered the middle album of a trilogy that includes Swordfishtrombones and Franks Wild Years. The album, which includes appearances by guitarists Keith Richards and Marc Ribot, is noted for its broad spectrum of musical styles and genres, described by Rolling Stone as merging "Kurt Weill, pre-rock integrity from old dirty blues, [and] the elegiac melancholy of New Orleans funeral brass, into a singularly idiosyncratic American style". In 1989, it was ranked number 21 on the Rolling Stone list of the "100 greatest albums of the 1980s". In 2012, the album was ranked number 399 on the magazine's list of "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time".
